Army progress

I did a bit of priming today, but don't see myself having any time for painting, so I thought I would post a shot of my entire Idoneth force as it sits today, before I head off on vacation for a week.

Paint by numbers

Contrast and speedpaint tonight.  I am hoping to do some highlighting tomorrow, but in my mind I have written off this miniature, and I do not like it.  Well, the miniature is fine, I do not like how I painted it, maybe more specifically the colour choices are both busy, but also lacking in depth.

"Slow and steady wins the race" said no shark ever.

Man, this is really dragging.  At this rate it could be another week before I finish, and I am leaving town for almost a week on Sunday.  I would love to get this guy done before I leave. Applied some metallics, some Vallejo Dark Sand on the on the seating structure, and slapped a bit of white here and there for future slapchopping.

Sharks bite

Well, back on the shark train tonight.  I did a wash of Contrast Space Wolves Grey mixed 1:1 with Speedpaint medium over all the shark skin.  It mostly worked how I wanted to, but I missed few pools, and a couple of bizarre splotches.  Nature is weird is what I will say if someone asks. I decided to do the seating contraption as some sort of whale bone, which I saw in a picture somehwhere, so starting by giving it a white coating. I also did the Topaz Skin/ Reikland Flesh shade work on the skin of the riders.
